This was our third and final Minecraft craft for our first Minecraft weekend. (We also made Light Up Minecraft Torches and Wacky Waving Endermen) Painting is always a favorite thing for kids to do, and I have seen so many people find things at Dollar Tree to repaint and use like frames I had hoped I could find something as well.
Well, I lucked out big time. I found this pressed wood squares for $1 each at our local Dollar Tree. I figured I could remove the wire hanger (super easy..just use some needle nose pliers), rough up the surface with some sand paper, and then spray paint white to get a base ready for painting.
I did all of that the day before the kids painted so there would be no rushing or possibly dealing with rain and drying issues.
Next, I looked forPerler Beads or Melty bead patterns. I had hoped my square would be even so I could make a grid for painting. Well, it was not truly square, but a little adjusting of the ruler and it was fine. I found this great site that had some HAMA bead patterns. I assume these are like the Perler or Melty ones. It didn't matter to me. I just liked the character faces in simple grid form. They were 8 blocks across and down so very close to what I had!
I printed the page so the kids could pick what they wanted to do. The girl wanted to make an Enderman and the boy decided on a Skeleton. We kept the colors simple: Black, purple, and light purple for the Enderman, and black, gray, and dark gray for the Skeleton. No reason to buy extra colors. Use a dark purple for the eye centers, then add some white and now you have a lighter shade for the other part. Same goes for the gray for the Skeleton. Just use a light gray all over, and then for the small bit add some black to your gray.
I squared up the parts as best I could and drew one inch squares for the eyes and nose of the characters. I used colored pencils in similar paint colors so they could be easily covered later. The rest of the grid didn't matter since it was one color. Then it was time to paint, dry, and paint again.
A couple coats was perfect other than some touch ups by Mom around the eyes and nose.
Then just reattach the wires, and they are ready to hang. These will be a great addition to the playroom décor!

Everything from the tiny cells to the artwork painted directly on the stone walls has a story to tell about convict life as far back as the 1850s. Since the walls can't talk, it's best to book a guided tour; themes range from escape sites and underground tunnel excursions to the morbid Torchlight Tour offered on Wednesday and Friday evenings.

So in my Black Cat book, I've been painting a lot of panels where our main character is completely nuts - here are a couple of those panels that I liked. The first is where he gets his hand bit by the black cat, and goes into a rage before he cuts out the cats eye. The second is the reaction of our main character after he hangs the cat. Good work Mr. Poe!

The Black Cat, Page 4
Here's another page from my Black Cat project. In this page the narrator stumbles home drunk and hits his wife. I included the page without the type, with the type, and a close up of my favorite passage. Hope everyone had a happy halloween!

Javascript tooltips for word definitions
Budget $30-250 USD
I want some code that will search blog content on load for vocabulary words, add a CSS class to matches so they stand out, slaps a tooltip on them with the part of speech and definition from Wordnik, and creates a link to the word's definition on Wordnik for readers who want more context. (Wordnik's API should hopefully make this more straightforward). The vocabulary list doesn't need to stay in Google Docs, but I still need to be able to edit the list easily.

By Robbie Blakeley, Senior Contributing Reporter
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – FIFA general secretary Jérôme Valcke was in Brazil last week to inspect the nation's preparations for the 2014 World Cup. The Frenchman spent two days in Rio de Janeiro to speak to the city's associated press about his impressions, as well as outlining FIFA's plans for the tournament in two and a half years' time.
Speaking exclusively to the Foreign Press Association at the Caesar Park Hotel in Ipanema, Valcke confirmed that Rio would only see the Brazilian national team in one World Cup match, the final. Prior to FIFA's visit, over 2,000 indignant Cariocas had staged a protest in the city center against the World Cup calendar, which has subsequently fallen on deaf ears.
Valcke said: "It took months to build the calendar. It cannot be changed at the drop of a hat; we have to take into account the 32 teams and the wishes of each of the twelve cities."
But the secretary did confirm that the Maracanã Stadium would host the final of the Confederations Cup in 2013. The Confederations Cup is a tournament held one year prior to the World Cup and is looked upon almost as a dress rehearsal to see if the nation is ready or not to host sport's most prestigious prize.
The real worry remains the state of Brazil's airports. It is no secret that many are below the required standard and five years on from being awarded the World Cup, the majority remain unprepared for the tourism boom that will coincide with the tournament.
As Valcke explained, airports will need to be able to deal with a sudden influx of around 50,000 people within a 24 hour period. FIFA have estimated that on top of fans traveling around the country, up to 2,000 journalists and a further 1,000 FIFA employees will be jetting in and out of the twelve host cities on a regular basis and the turnaround must be rapid.
The main problem lies in the fact that, Rio, São Paulo and Brasília aside, the nine other cities are not used to handling such large numbers in such a short period of time.
Despite the vast size of the country, Brazil still only receives around five million tourists a year and the concern remains that a boost in numbers so suddenly will not be dealt with competently or efficiently. Indeed, problems in the north-eastern city of Natal are so grave consideration is being given to the idea of dropping it as a host city.
But while airport improvement remains an anxiety, all stadium renovations, with the exception of Natal, are said to be running relatively smoothly.
Present was a delegation of FIFA executives featuring Secretary General Jerome Valcke, joined by the Brazilian Minister of Sport Aldo Rebelo. Brazil's ex-Minister for Sport, Orlando Silva, announced his resignation in October in the wake of corruption allegations.
Speaking afterwards, Valcke stressed: "It was a very good meeting, an excellent way to start 2012, which is a key year in the organization of the FIFA World Cup. It was very important to have the minister here, and I'd like to point out once again that relations between FIFA and the federal government have always been excellent. I'm very pleased that we're walking side by side with them and in the right direction."

vintage richmond, summertime, and 10KsThursday, April 11, 2013
Photos courtesy of Vintage Richmond
I recently ran across these vintage photographs of Richmond. I especially loved the third photograph of The Fan. Not a lot has changed since 1960. Except for the cars, maybe.
I'm sure I will though, because this weekend 42,000 runners will be descending upon my street to run in the annual Ukrop's Monument Avenue 10K. It's a pretty big deal for Richmond, but I've learned that if you're not actually in the race...get out of town! Driving and parking around town on that day is impossible. I will more than likely be heading home to peaceful Caroline and let those brave enough enjoy the crowded streets.

DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) — Authorities are investigating the death of a man who was taken into custody after a fracas at a Dubuque bar.
Police say officers were sent to Shannon's Sports Bar around 1:45 a.m. Sunday to check a report of a man assaulting customers there. The arriving officers found the man being restrained by customers.
Police Chief Mark Dalsing says the man resisted as officers tried to take him into custody, so they used pepper spray on him. He became compliant, and they handcuffed him.
Dalsing says that after the man was handcuffed, he became unresponsive. Officers began CPR and called for medics.
The man was pronounced dead later at a hospital. His name hasn't been released.
An autopsy has been ordered.

If you are real fan of Windows Phone you must remember the Live Lock Screen app developed by Microsoft with the one of the most popular Windows application developer Rudy Huyn.
Back in August 2014, Microsoft introduced Live Lock Screen app to the Windows Phone users. Later on Microsoft discontinued the app. But today all of sudden the app is back to Windows Store you can download it. The app includes all features and is fully operational. However the performance of it is not very good.
Furthermore, in the description of app they mentioned Windows 10 Mobile as Recommended and minimum system requirement along with Windows Phone 8.1. I download the app and the performance of it really really bad. It never start at the first attempt.
In case if you don't know who is Rudy Huyn. Rudy is developer of some of the post popular application in Windows Store such as 6tin, 6tag. He also developed the 6snap – a snapchat app client which is discontinued later due to some privacy issue. Dropbox collaborated with Rudy to bring Universal Windows Platform app to Windows Store.
The real reason why Microsoft removed the app from Windows Store was the slowness of app and massive lag on lockscreen. We don't understand why all of sudden the app is back for everyone via Windows Store. Maybe it's just a matter of time till company figure out the issue.
With the demise of Windows Phone market it's quite strange if Microsoft officially decide to bring back this app. Oh by the way if you are still using Windows Phone and want to try out Live Lock Screen app then you can get it from here via Windows Store.

Traveling solo is a liberating experience in itself and is the gateway for some life changing experiences. While traveling with friends and family is fun, traveling solo once in a while will give you a sense of overwhelming freedom that you'll cherish forever. Another main reason why you should travel solo at least once in your lifetime is to find the path of self discovery- it is amazing how you'll discover new facets to your personality that you weren't familiar with.
So, traveling solo really does have its fair share of benefits and are enlisting a few of them below:
You are the master of your own time:
You can spend a day doing absolutely nothing, just lazing around on a calm beach or you can spend hours cafe hopping or lingering in a single museum. You can party till the wee hours at those amazing nightclubs that you'd always wanted to visit or go for a bike trip in Southeast Asia. When you are traveling alone, you are the master of your own time and that is a pretty amazing feeling in itself.
Meeting new people:
When you are traveling with a group of friends or family, you tend to interact more with them and less with the locals of the place you are visiting. But when you are traveling solo, you're much more eager to meet new people, make friends, team up with other travelers and generally reach out more in order to socialize.
Planning a solo trip is much easier:
Since you are traveling alone, you know exactly what are the places that you'd be covering and what all you'd need at those places. Moreover you can choose your accommodations and flights as per your budget and schedule and can plan something at the last minute if you wish to. Planning a solo trip is way easier than planning a trip with your spouse or family or friends.
Self Discovery:
Solo travel is intensely personal. You can discover more about yourself while discovering the best museums in the heart of Amsterdam. Traveling on your own can be a lot of fun, challenging, vivid, and exhilarating- all at the same time.
Boosts up your confidence:
It is natural to feel a little nervous before embarking on your first solo trip. In fact, it is perfectly alright if you feel much more than just a little nervous! But the confidence that you'll muster while facing small hurdles during the trip all by yourself will definitely be worth the trouble. You'll come back home a much more confident person!
So for once, just disconnect yourself from everything and everyone and embark on a solo journey. Trust us, you'll be amazed by how refreshed you'll feel once you get back home!

To say life is crazy would be an understatement. I know I am not the only one. We all say how crazy our lives are, listing off everything contributed to the crazy as if it were a competition. The fact of the matter is, we all deal with our fair share of crazy. Some days, it gets to be just about too much for me.
Take me back to a couple years ago & I felt like I was nearly suffocating. It was a silent suffering, although it may very well have been present in my attitude towards others. We all deal with stress differently & over the course of my short life I have come to the realization that uncertainty terrifies me to an unhealthy level. As I worked with a therapist & did an in depth intake we can to a conclusion. Any time trauma & uncertainty became "too much" for me, I needed to hold onto something I could control. This led me through years of unhealthy habits that I had "control" over.
I am older, growing & healing. But trauma never truly stops. Big or small, things happen that we have no control over all the time. However I would like to believe that I became stronger. After Tahlya was born and the new mom "fog" faded away I once again began to feel the uncertainty of everything around me & the anxiety crept back in. This was right around the time that "minimalism" began its spotlight. The idea intrigued me. I read all the minimalism blogs I could find, google searched the meaning, looked at & read anything I could learn more about this lifestyle. I made the decision that when we bought a house I would clean everything out & start fresh. Subconsciously I also made the decision that this would be the thing I could control instead of diving back into unhealthy habits.
Simplicity isn't for everyone & I respect that 100% but it became a blessing for me. All things simple give me that feeling of excitement & accomplishment. To open the fridge & see organized fresh produce, to look in my closet and have it small & organized, to look at my schedule and not be incredibly busy but have just enough going on that I don't feel lazy, to walk into my home & see everything in its place… there is no better feeling. Minimalism, simplicity, whatever you want to call it saved my heart & soul. Don't be turned off by the word just because it became trendy for a while. Don't say "it isn't for me" because you love to have all the clothes because hey, maybe you like a slow weekend & simple decor in your home. Don't fall into the mindset of "this could never be me" because you see that picture perfect minimalism account on Instagram & get discouraged; minimalism can be whatever you need it to be.
Have you become intrigued by the lifestyle as well? I love to hear from fellow "minimalists in pursuit".

We finally got Cannon's 1 year pictures taken. If my head weren't attached I'd be in trouble. We're so busy I just kept forgetting. Cannon's doing good and learning fast.
He was eating lunch the other day and finally got finished. I said "All done!" and like a little parrot he followed up with " AAAADAAAA" In baby that mean All done. He's such a big boy.
We had a little scare yesterday, Cannon had a febrile seizure during his nap. We took him to the Dr. shortly after and he sent us to the ER here in town. They ran some tests and per Dr's orders we went by ambulance to Children's ER in Little Rock. Cannon was taking an extra long time to come out of it and that's what worried the Dr. When we arrived at Children's Cannon finally started coming around and perking up little by little but by that time he'd already had a long day so he took himself a little nap and finally it was OK to go home. The final diagnosis: Febrile illness/ febrile seizure. The Dr's office will be making an apt for Cannon to have an EEG at Children's soon so keep us in your prayers. I know my God is an awesome God and Cannon is His. I will do my best to lay Cannon at His feet. I know the Lord is in control and everything will be okay. Cannon's acting more like himself today. I'm just gonna keep my chin up. Thank you Lord!

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you......
Cannon had a great birthday party! He had a great turn out and enjoyed his day very much! He had a dump truck birthday cake. Pawpaw helped him open his presents and what 1 year old boy doesn't need a 4 wheeler. Which by the way he'd rather push:) So funny! We enjoyed everyone being there it was one wild and busy day but I wouldn't trade a minute of it!

We have a big boy!
Can you believe it? Cannon turned a year old Sept 25th. He's sooo big. He pretty much just skipped walking altogether and now he's running every where. He's into everything all day long, except nap time. Thank you Lord for nap time. :) He's a sweet boy but don't think you're gonna get a hug and a kiss. He's waaaay to busy for that. He'll wave high and bye but stay out of the way when Cannon's comin through! ;)

Mating Jan–Mar, eggs laid Oct–Dec
Beetles, weta, spiders, earthworms, seabird eggs & chicks
First introduced to Tiri:
60 tuatara in October 2003
The Tuatara (Maori for 'peaks or spines on the back') is of special significance within New Zealand and internationally. This cold blooded reptile is totally different from all lizards, amphibians and other reptiles.
Once common throughout the lowland areas of New Zealand, the estimated 100,000 remaining Tuatara are now restricted to a few offshore islands where there are no introduced predators such as rats, cats, stoats and pigs.
Some of the ancient Tuatara's unique features include:
- Being the sole living member of a major group of reptiles, remaining virtually unchanged since dinosaur times 225 million years ago.
- Being long-lived, 60 – 100 years or more
- Having odd anatomical features including a pineal or third eye on the top of young Tuatara, which becomes covered over as they mature.
- Having teeth that are solid projections of the jawbone; the bottom jaw fits perfectly between the two rows of 'teeth' on the top jaw.
- Having unusual breeding characteristics, e.g. the determination of gender by the incubation temperature of the eggs (warmer produces males, cooler produces females).
- Tuatara perform best at temperatures around 12 to 17 C, which is the lowest requirement for warmth in all the reptiles (average temperatures for reptiles are 25-38 C).
- They live in underground burrows, rock crevices or even clumps of dense ferns and are found in forest areas which provide good supplies of beetles, weta, spiders, earthworms, millipedes and other invertebrates that comprise most of their diet. They associate with burrowing seabirds, sharing their burrows and even eating the birds' eggs and chicks.
Tuatara are slow breeders and although they mate between January and March, the 6–12 soft-shelled eggs are not laid for another 8–9 months, from October to December. The eggs are buried in the ground and take 11–16 months to hatch. Young tuatara are vulnerable - even their parents will eat them - so only a few mature, a process that takes 9–14 years. To help their survival chances the juveniles are active during the day, hiding at night when the adults emerge to feed. They grow for a further 15 or so years, reaching full size at between 25 and 35 years.
On 25 October 2003, 40 female and 20 male Tuatara were relocated on Tiritiri Matangi Island so that more people could see them in the wild. Since then, small individuals have been seen and a nest with hatching eggs was found in August 2009.

This is a contributed piece by Shaan Mulchandani, director of security & blockchain lead from Aricent with his colleague Prakasha Mandagaru Ramachandra, AVP of technology & solutions architect.
Heated debates are common in the cryptocurrency community as blockchain technology matures and enters mainstream business applications. The introduction of Bitcoin Cash is the latest controversy. But while blockchain is often associated with Bitcoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies, the technology itself is on the verge of its own revolution.
By enabling a secure, distributed mechanism for recording transactions, blockchain technology eliminates the middleman—banks and financial institutions—thus possessing the power to reduce transaction costs, improve security and perhaps transform economies. The core blockchain tenets of decentralisation and immutability enable more efficient record keeping, and auditing and the full traceability of transactions without a central authority democratise trust.
As a result, this versatile technology has the potential to disrupt virtually every industry, from financial services to manufacturing and automotive. Now it is even finding its way into the product development ecosystem.
Validation mechanisms in blockchain technology ensure that trust is maintained with every transaction. Built-in processes such as proof-of-work, proof-of-stake and consensus-based decisions add up to making blockchain a veritable "trust machine" for secure transactions of all types. The opportunities to leverage this capability in product development are boundless, ranging across the entire product lifecycle. Following are some examples of these up-and-coming use cases.
In addition to tracking transactions, blockchains can be used for improved traceability of actual goods, such as tracking and tracing products throughout the supply chain. The technology can be used to signal that a product has been received—this can be done automatically if a product has GPS functionality—logging location updates, triggering payments and contributing signatures with transmitted data for integrity checks.
As the volume of connected devices grows exponentially, identities of physical assets—serial numbers, QR codes and universal product codes— can be managed by binding them to stronger cryptographic identities. With tamper-resistant recordkeeping of these assets, a blockchain-based solution offers compliance with industry standards for digital tracking and analytics, yielding insights for better business decisions.
App stores and mobile-edge compute platforms continue to gain traction, and both consumers and developers expect these ecosystems to work seamlessly and securely. These ecosystems incorporate and manage numerous functions such as approvals management to grant access permission, security and compliance checks for publication of an app or service and payment reconciliation for in-app purchases.
Currently, the processes to manage these functions can be time-consuming and costly due to large code bases, virtual private clouds, numerous data stores and manual intervention or approval. However, the use of a permissioned blockchain could significantly streamline and simplify all these processes, without sacrificing security, trust or latency.
Although the digital product development process known as DevOps helps organisations increase agility and efficiency, centralised management of this product development process can be unwieldy when dealing with a large number of developers, testers, operations personnel and tools. The intrinsic nature of DevOps can create delays and stumbling blocks when prompted by certain actions, such as a security analyst uncovering a critical vulnerability in committed code.
DevOps needs to be embedded in culture for maximum effect. Check out: DevOps is a CIO's theory of evolution
Streamlining of the DevOps process can be accomplished through blockchain, including propagation of updates based on remediation activities, evidence for SLA guarantees to customers, enforcement of organisation-specific security/compliance/performance/quality checks through smart contract executions, and audit trails and actionable alerts triggered by certain changes without requiring interactions between personnel.
Public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates often form the basis for a trusted connection between different entities, with PKIs signed by a handful of certificate authorities or trusted third parties. Yet, the Internet of Things (IoT) is shaking up this model, which requires "handshakes" between certificates provisioned by different manufacturers and service providers. Moreover, some devices require lifetime certificates that generally are not available. As an alternative, a group known as Rebooting Web-of-Trust has devised a blockchain-based decentralised PKI to serve as a publicly trusted identity verification mechanism much like the financial transactions used by the Bitcoin network.
Similarly, communications service providers deploying network functions virtualisation require exponential trust when onboarding virtual network functions (VNF) from multiple vendors. A blockchain-based verification process through smart contracts appears to be a promising solution for attesting that various permutations of VNFs and corresponding infrastructure have been tested for compatibility and security.
As malevolent actors look to alter firmware and software on insecure devices, malware and ransomware are increasingly making their way onto IoT connected devices. Unfortunately, threat actors are moving faster than the ecosystem that is currently responsible for patch validation and delivery for IoT devices and hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI). However, the integrity of IoT devices can be ensured via blockchain technology, where firmware could be stored as a cryptographic fingerprint, or hash, of the code. If malware should alter the firmware's code, a blockchain can issue a new hash to change the code's value while generating an intrusion alert to trigger countermeasures.
This type of blockchain-based malware defense also could allow for publication of verified hashes of trusted payloads, enabling devices to periodically publish a hash of their configuration and patch status to the shared database, as well as uploading an encrypted payload of the sensitive data. With the ability for devices to vet and download trusted payloads, the system avoids malware. In addition, the capability to store and retrieve a copy or image of the sensitive data that it contains counteracts the impact of ransomware.
These are just a few of the innovative ways that this technology is reinventing industries well beyond digital financial transactions. With the tremendous potential to disrupt the status quo, blockchain is coming into its own. The revolution is here, and the potential appears promising to those who move fast.

Vision & Motion – Fieldbus connectivity
Complex, modern production facilities in the automotive, electronic components, food, beverage and other similar sectors are characterized by high throughputs, numerous optical inspection, measuring and testing tasks and the deployment of decentralized control systems networked via fieldbus protocols.
Maintaining a high throughput demands rapid processing speeds, among other factors. These in turn demand a high degree of synchronization between individual process steps and thus also between automation components.
Vision systems with fieldbus interfaces offer new possibilities for controlling machines and facilities. Directly linking image processing with drive and control technology makes it possible to optimize cycle times in automated processes and to increase the precision of manufacturing facilities.
The sercos interface, in particular, features hard real-time capability and high synchronicity to guarantee the smooth running of automation solutions at process rates typically used for packing and filling processes and for assembly and handling processes.

Question about Hitachi 43F300 43" Rear Projection Television
I have a Hitachi 43F300 that worked great for a few years but suddenly the illignment is off so everything is purple with a green shadow... how do i fix this? I'm great with electronics and I've been told that if i take out the green bulb and shake the hell out of it that would probably fix it. is this true?
Posted by TimDawg on
Gee I'm pretty good with electronics and I've never heard that joke!
What you have there is a convergence problem. Your unit takes two STK392-110 Ic's at position numbers IK04 and IK05 respectively. Also check and replace as necessary Rk50 (2.7ohm /1w), Rk62 (2.2ohm /1w), Rk63 (150ohm /2w), Rk46 (1.8ohm /1w), Rk42 (3.3ohm /1w) And Rk43 (220 ohm 2w). In fact test all of the 2.2ohm resistors in the yoke return just out in front of the amps for change in value.
Also make sure to use Sanyo original Ics and not some asian knock-offs which are readily out there.. Get them from Acme in Florida http://www.acme-sales.net/index.shtml and rest assured you're getting Sanyo originals..

Ilham Aliyev received delegation led by EBRD President
07 september 2017, 11:20
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has today received a delegation led by President of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) Suma Chakrabarti.
The head of state recalled his meetings with the EBRD President in Azerbaijan and in Davos, and emphasized the importance of Suma Chakrabarti's regular visits to Azerbaijan. He noted that these visits create a good opportunity for discussing what has been done and future plans. President Ilham Aliyev hailed Azerbaijan-EBRD cooperation.
The head of state noted that the EBRD's loan portfolio in Azerbaijan is about $3 billion, praising the fact that its major part is being channeled into the private sector. He described this as a clear manifestation of the expansion of the private sector of Azerbaijan's economy.
The President noted that this also demonstrates the increasing confidence in the economy and helps to support entrepreneurship through additional financial resources.
Expressing his hope that cooperation between Azerbaijan and EBRD will be successful in the years to come, the head of state underlined the current plans and challenges ahead.
President Ilham Aliyev said that the majority of infrastructure projects in Azerbaijan have already been finalized or they are at the stage of completion, adding that the new economic development program mainly aims to develop the non-oil sector in Azerbaijan, diversify the economy and support the private sector. The head of state hailed great opportunities in this regard.
President Ilham Aliyev underlined the importance of implementing plans to establish transportation and new logistic centers.
The head of state said the EBRD President Suma Chakrabarti's visit to Azerbaijan created the opportunity to hold discussions on what should be done.
The EBRD President Suma Chakrabarti recalled his previous meetings with President Ilham Aliyev, saying they held fruitful discussions on bilateral cooperation. He expressed his confidence that the issues relating to Azerbaijan-EBRD cooperation prospects will be determined during this meeting too.
They also discussed the EBRD's involvement in financing the Southern Gas Corridor, and opportunities for cooperation in developing transport corridors, supporting the private sector and solid waste management in Azerbaijan.

Evil...more or less
|Over the past few days I have been working with Jonathan Justice of the University of Delaware on the final "fixes" for our co-authored article on "Accountability and the Evil of Administrative Ethics". The paper was accepted for publication in Administration and Society, but we have taken seriously the task of addressing one reviewer's criticism of our conclusion as well as the need to shorten the manuscript (a daunting task from my point of view; while some may see it as unwieldy, I regard it as 'tightly' argued). But in the process of checking on citation and sources, I have come across Michael Ignatieff's excellent little book, The Lesser Evil : Political Ethics in an Age of Terror. So, instead of being focused on shortening the manuscript, I am trying to "make room" for some of the points Ignatieff raises.
My own view of "evil' is quite different from Ignatieff, and so in one important (conceptual) sense our analyses are quite different. For me, the concept of evil is a social construct that has to be taken seriously for what it is: that is, the label we apply to behavior and actions so horrific that they fall outside out moral comprehension, i.e., they are unfathomable. Ignatieff's "lesser evil" is set at a lower threshhold, and he is explicit in admitting that this is the case. He holds that lesser evils are those acts of coercion involving "necessary harm" that must be undertaken -- that is, are "justifiable" for the greater good (I am paraphrasing here, so some of the nuances are going to be lost; see his discussion on pp. 17-19). For Ignatieff, applying the word "evil" to such harms is necessary in order to emphasize that the acts are committed with the knowledge that they are morally problematic. This is key to his prescriptive stand in the book, for once designated and acknowledged as such "lesser evils," these acts are legitimated as temporarily acceptable within the bounds of active vigilance and opposition allowed by a liberal democracy.
In contrast to Ignatieff's focus on such 'lesser evils', we focus on those acts that start out as unfathomable (because they are gratuitously harmful or unacknowledged as horrific by their perpetrators) but are eventually encompassed by various political, legal, social, etc. mechanisms designed to bring them within the realm of moral comprehension and the range of collective counter action. We then establish that this very process sometimes leads to actions that are themselves unfathomable from the perspective of different moral communities. (Our modal case is the witch hunts and trials of the 14th-17th centuries that were undertaken as highly moral responses to a perceived source of evil in their day, but which we regard today as evil acts unto themselves.)
Where our analyses join is in the conclusion that the most effective solution to both problems -- that of Ignatieff's lesser evils and our own paradox of ethical evils -- is found in the effective operations of the modern liberal state....
As usual, more to come....

Sunday, September 30| Pastor Steve Wainright
Morning Audio: The Parable of the Soil (Luke 8:4-15)
"As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience." -Luke 8:15
The soil represents the heart and that's what Jesus is all about. In this parable, Jesus lets us know upfront that as we sow seeds and share the Gospel, there will be different results, but His words also encourage us to keep sharing. The four different types of soil the seed (Gospel) can fall on:
1) Wayside- Paths where people would travel between rows of corn. It's a beaten path, so nothing can grow there. Seed can't take root because the soil is hardened.
2) Rocks- Underneath the soil is a slab of rock. The seed that falls there has no place to take root and cannot get nourishment, therefore, it dies. They receive the Gospel with joy, but since there's no root, there's no fruit.
3) Thorns- The seed is choked out because of weeds. All the junk in their life chokes out the seed that's planted. The cares of this world are greater to them, so they're not serious and have no fruit in their life. [Matthew 6:33- Our hearts should be seeking GOD's kingdom first.]
4) Good Soil- The seed takes root and brings forth great fruit. The heart is receptive and desires to hear God's Word. It hungers and thirsts after righteousness.
God is the "cardiagnosis." The heart-knower. He knows our hearts! (Acts 15:8)
Are you bearing forth fruit with patience?

Aussie indie folk duo Husky have been quietly making lovely acoustic tunes for quite some time – I remember being struck by the delicate Mumford-And-Sons-era "Hunter" a few years back – but they fell off my radar after their 2012 debut. Fortunately, they've come back in full force with "Late Night Store," an enchanting new single about returning home to Australia for a visit after their recent relocation to Berlin.
They've released the song along with a mesmerizing and creatively edited found-footage video:
Husky have an album coming January 13th. They'll also be hitting the road soon and promise a revamped show with never-before-heard songs.

text: Mr Edgar is at it again with his new EP Saline, just released yesterday, the third instalment from a collection of records from the mega boss himself. This tune is almost to 'hot to handle', titled BURN, this tuna is full of boppy, bouncy, aciddy kicks and highs. This song boosts a whole lot of sass, you wouldn't expect anything less from Jimmy's Ultramajik label. Best bit of advice. Go home and crank it.
